In South Carolina. 317 



day, it being very stormy and cold, we were compelled 

 to stop at Santee Lower Ferry. 



Saturday, 22. "We came to Georgetown — still cold. 



Sabbath-day, 23. I preached at Georgetown from 

 1 Tim. iv. 10. N. Snethen preached in the afternoon, 

 and James Mellard in the evening- 

 Monday, 24. At Black River Chapel, I spoke on 

 Matt. vi. 31-33. We crossed the river at Evans's Fer- 

 ry, and lodged at the widow McCantry's. Next day I 

 preached at Jenkins's Chapel, and after meeting rode 

 up to JPort's F erry. We lodged at Thos. Humphrey's. 



Wednesday, 26. I preached at the Bare Ponds, 

 upon Heb. viii. 10, 11. We dined at Mr. Shackleford's, 

 and thence went on to Gaspero Sweet's. 



Thursday, 27. N. Snethen preached at Rowell's 

 meeting-house; I added a few words on St. Paul's tri- 

 umphant words in 2 Tim. iv. 7. We lodged at the wid- 

 ow Davis's, a daughter of Mr. Dunham, at whose house 

 I had lodged some years back. I have lived to serve 

 three generations in South Carolina. 



Friday, 28. At Wood's meeting-house, N. Snethen 

 preached; I only glossed a little upon 2 Cor. iv. 3. 

 We lodged at old Mr. Wood's, Marion District. 



Saturday, 29. We rode to George Shank's, Marl- 

 borough District, upon Great Pedee. I have ridden 

 two hundred and sixty miles toward the seventh thou- 

 sand. My mind hath been very calm; but we have 

 had it so severely cold, and the meeting-houses are so 

 open between this and Charleston, that I fear the con- 

 gregations have profited little by the word. 



Sabbath, 30. At Harris's Chapel, at the head of 

 Catfish, I preached upon Eph. ii. 8. We lodged with 

 Captain Nevell; he and his wife appear to be seeking 

 the Lord.
